Here’s a stat for you.

Grayson Fleming, Nikki Morgan, Lexi Patty and Harley Romines didn’t record a service error for the tournament.

Not the championship matchup with top-seed Maryville. The whole thing.

Tournament most valuable player Kelsey Woods (8) closes on the net as Maryville’s Evan Harper returns serve.

A steady hand at the service line had a lot to do with it as Heritage Middle turned back Maryville Junior High, 25-19, 25-17, in the championship match of the Blount County Middle School Volleyball Tournament on Tuesday at Union Grove.
